Fang Zhiyi married a new queen, and the whole world celebrated.
When Sima Ci heard the emperor calling his father-in-law, his old face was so smiling that he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses with the emperor. Looking at the drunk emperor, he felt a little disdainful. When he was a prince leading troops to fight, this kid was not even born yet, and he wanted to compete with him in drinking!
The palace was extremely lively that day, as it had been a long time since it was so lively. However, to outsiders, tonight looked more like a family dinner for the Sima family.
The emperor fell drunk early and was taken to his bedroom by the eunuchs, but the wedding banquet continued.
After putting the drunk emperor on the bed, several eunuchs retreated. There was no benefit in guarding here today. It would be better to go to the banquet and serve. Maybe they could even get some tips.
When the footsteps faded away, Fu Hai shook his head, feeling a little regretful that he had boarded the emperor's pirate ship. Now it seemed that he had no chance of winning. However, since it had come to this, he had no choice but to accept it. He turned around to find a quilt, but saw that the emperor, who was obviously drunk just now, was now sitting upright by the bed with his eyes bright and lively. How could he look drunk?
"Emperor..." Fu Hai was startled and was about to kneel down when Fang Zhiyi grabbed his arm and signaled him to shut up.
"Time is urgent, stop talking nonsense."
Fu Hai listened to Fang Zhiyi's detailed explanation of the plan for a while, and then the expression on his face gradually changed, from the initial panic to enthusiasm, with a hint of yearning.
The next day, Fang Zhiyi claimed to be sick and did not attend court. Sima Ci just thought it was because he drank too much yesterday. Anyway, as a mascot, it didn't matter whether he came or not.
After the court session, Sima Ci walked towards the harem. He realized that he was not only the prime minister, but also the father-in-law of the emperor, so he walked more arrogantly.
But before he reached his daughter's bedroom, he heard noises of playfulness. Such noises had not been heard in the harem for a long time, especially since several emperors had been replaced in succession in just the past ten days. Everyone in the harem had long been feeling insecure.
Curious Sima Ci followed the sound, but saw a scene that surprised him.
The emperor was wearing servant's clothes and was fighting with a group of eunuchs for a round object!
Sima Ci opened his mouth but said nothing. The emperor himself grew up in the market. Seeing how happy he looked now, didn't it mean that he posed no threat to the Sima family?
But the reminder still had to be given, and Sima Ci finally coughed twice.
Fang Zhiyi saw him and trotted over: "Teacher!"
Sima Ci looked strange.
Fang Zhiyi slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my memory, father-in-law!"
Sima Ci smiled happily, but after a moment he frowned: "Your Majesty is not attending court today, but instead is hanging out here with the eunuchs. This is truly a loss of the emperor's dignity."
The eunuchs behind Fang Zhiyi were so scared that they knelt down. As eunuchs, their status was not high to begin with. It would be okay if they offended this stupid emperor, but if they offended Sima Ci, they would really be dead!
Fang Zhiyi smiled innocently: "Father-in-law, well, well, they always want to play with me. I used to play with people on the street too."
Sima Ci squinted his eyes and looked at him: "Your Majesty, you are the ruler of a country. How can you neglect your life and hang out with these eunuchs? Come, drag them away!"
